Ekologiya Garden Moscow
A sculpture square
“Ekologiya” or “Ecology” Square is a small green oasis just a few minutes' walk from noisy and crowded Arbat Street. I often stroll around the alleyways next to Arbat Street and every time I was sure that I had discovered every detail in this location. However, not so long ago, I found this square.
Actually, the garden is an alley with a small park ensemble. “Ekologiya” Square includes several sculptures created by famous Russian sculptor Alexander Bourganov. For example, there is a sculpture of Pegasus, a sculpture of an angel and a sculpture of a hand with a butterfly sitting on it that represents ecology. It is a real open-air museum!
So, if you need a moment of silence while strolling along Arbat Street, or just want to explore a new spot in a well-known district of Moscow, take a walk to “Ekologiya” Square. If you are tired of museums but want to enjoy art a little bit, this place is still a good solution!

Ludi Kak Ludi
Seriously addictive pies
"Ludi Kak Ludi" in Moscow is my go-to place when I want good food at a super-cheap price. Protip: take your pie to-go in cute neighbourhood Kitay Gorod.

Best falafel in town
"Fruits and Veges" restaurant in Moscow is a bit hidden, but their fresh falafel wrap, my favourite in the city, is well worth the effort!

Craft beer
"Howard Loves Craft" in Moscow is a small, cool new 'hipster' pub my doctor friend invited me to have a craft beer at. The rule: always trust doctors...

Sandwiches and posters
"Enthusiast" Moscow: a hip, relaxed cafe with the best sandwiches in town (seriously) and cider, decorated with witty, Soviet-era-like posters. I love it!

Bauman Garden
Perfect place for doing nothing
"Bauman Garden" is strategically located between two of my favorite neighborhoods in Moscow. It was recently renovated - there's always something going on.

Ejeminutka
Cafe with hedgehogs
"Ejeminutka" Cafe in Moscow is not another cat cafe. It has hedgehogs! Yes, you read that right. Come later during the day and maybe you can even feed one!
